Review titled Amazing practice!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gemma Perkins - Posted on 22 November 2023
I have always had a really positive and professional service from Wigmore medical Centre. The receptionists are incredibly helpful and are always able to provide paperwork or appointments needed. The doctors are very thorough and I have always been seen promptly with any further treatments or referrals also being dealt with very quickly. I have full confidence in this practice, and want to let them know what a great job they are doing

Review titled Great Service!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by S Coe - Posted on 01 June 2023
Recently moved ourselves and elderly parents to Wigmore having been with another practice locally which was not delivering a service of any kind. We can only thank you for what has already been a very good experience. Within two days my elderly father-in-law was seen by a physiotherapist and now having much needed management of an ongoing problem. Our repeat prescription requests were dealt with swiftly which is not what we have been used to and we have not been ‘caller number 37’, all in all we are extremely happy to have secured registration at Wigmore. In this time of change within our NHS it’s been reassuring to see that some practices are still striving to deliver a good service to their patients. Thank you

Review titled Never any appointments
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 18 April 2023
The surgery now seems to be run by relief doctors. You can never get an appointment. If you need an appointment they only have a few appointments. I was number 9 in the queue when I got thru I was told fully booked try again tomorrow. I then rang following day and again they said fully booked. I asked for a routine appointment but they said only taking appointment bookings on the day. So basically no chance of seeing a doctor.

Dear Patient, Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We have had 3 permanent GPs at the Practice for the past 6 months, however we have been involved in the Enhanced Access appointments where our patients have been able to be seen at alternative sites by other clinicians. This moved back into practice on the 1st April 2023 and we are now offering enhanced access appointments to our patients only on a Tuesday evening from 18:30-20:00 with a GP and Clinical Pharmacist. It is recognised that appointment availability is an issue across the NHS as a whole and as a practice we are constantly working on ways to improve capacity and availablity. Unfortunately everywhere is struggling to meet the current demand. From the 1st April 2023 we are now working on an on the day triage basis whereby all patients calling in will be directed to the most appropriate service. This may be an appointment with on the day or in advance with the most appropriate clinician, referral to the community pharmacy service or, advice to attend an alternative provider, Urgent Care Treatment Centre or in the event of an emergency, A&E. We book daily routine appointments 3 weeks in advance but once these have all been taken we have to look at alternative options like e-consultations. I hope this has addressed your concerns, however if this is not the case please do contact me at the surgery. Yours sincerely Kelly Mills Practice Manager

Review titled Awful Practice
Rated 1 star out of 5

I cannot rate the GP’s in this practice highly enough but the general reception staff are rude untrained and very unhelpful. I have never experienced anything like this in my life. They may as well have a recorded message saying “you cannot see a doctor please dial 111”. Anyone considering joining this practice I would recommended steering well clear.

Thank you for your review. Without further information I am unable to investigate the comments that you have made about our reception team who normally receive very positive feedback. I would be grateful if you could contact me directly at the surgery so I can investigate any complaint that you have. Kelly Mills Practice Manager
